Ceiling Stain

Without knowing how large a stain this might be in advance, you might build a decorative round piece of wood with the antenna crank hole in the middle, then put that on the ceiling to conceal the stain.

I had good luck with a small handheld steam cleaner and vacuum cleaner. Use distilled water to avoid crud in tap water. Maybe a very soft brush.

You may have to clean it a few times to get the stain out. It wicks from the inside to the outside until gone. Ammonia and water may lighten it. We recently had a small leak on a slide with a brown stain. We noticed it before it had a chance to dry and used a shop wet vac on it. It pulled all the brown out and no stain now. Maybe if you try cleaning again and while wet used a good shop vac to suck all the moisture back out and repeat as necessary you may get it out. Don't saturate it or the adhesive could let loose.

Try some Folex you can get it at Lowes and other places.

+1 for folex. Amazing stuff.

Had stain where AC leaked on carpeted ceiling. 20% bleach and the rest water in a spray bottle took it right out. Just make sure you cover anything that might get misted.

X2 This worked very well for me. I used a 50/50 solution. Good idea to use a face mask too.

Try some of that 1000+ Stain remover . Apply and scrub with a white Towel. Our rig had some Red Wine sprayed ....Don't Ask! On the Window Shade ,that had dried for quite a while. It has now vanished !

OxyClean may require multiple applications.

When I removed the water stains from our ceiling, it took 5-6 applications to get the stain out.... spray it on, let it soak 5-10 minutes, blot with clean white cloth and repeat as needed.
